Besides being Syrian and his father being named John, little is known of Sisinnius' early life or career. At the time of his election to the papal throne, Sisinnius suffered from severe gout, leaving him weak. During the course of his twenty-day papacy, Sisinnius consecrated a bishop for Corsica and ordered the reinforcement of the walls surrounding the papal capital of Rome. On his death, Sisinnius was buried in Old St. Peter's Basilica. He was succeeded by Pope Constantine.","summary_more":[],"facts":[{"key":"born","label":"Born","values":[{"text":"650","date":"0650"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277#P569"}},{"key":"died","label":"Died","values":[{"text":"4 February 708","date":"0708-02-04"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277#P570"}},{"key":"deathplace","label":"Place of death","values":[{"text":"Rome","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q220"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277#P20"}},{"key":"citizenship","label":"Citizenship","values":[{"text":"Byzantine Empire","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12544"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277#P27"}},{"key":"occupation","label":"Occupation","values":[{"text":"Catholic priest","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q250867"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277#P106"}},{"key":"positions","label":"Positions held","values":[{"text":"Pope (19 January 708 – 4 February 708)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19546","start":"0708-01-19","end":"0708-02-04"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277#P39"}}],"office":null,"sections":[],"cited":[],"cited_from":null,"videos":[],"last_reviewed":null,"organizations":[],"same_as":["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Sisinnius","https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277"],"faq":[{"q":"When was Pope Sisinnius born?","a":"Pope Sisinnius was born on 650."},{"q":"What positions has Pope Sisinnius held?","a":"Positions held by Pope Sisinnius include: Pope (0708–0708)."}],"related":[{"name":"Pope Telesphorus","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-telesphorus"},{"name":"Pope Gregory XIII","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-gregory-xiii"},{"name":"Pope Clement VII","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-clement-vii"},{"name":"Pope Pius I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-pius-i"},{"name":"Pope Boniface I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-boniface-i"},{"name":"Pope Agapetus I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-agapetus-i"}],"places_in":[],"nearby":[],"image":{"url":"https://diginpl.com/kb-img/pope-sisinnius-f105ce5cbb.jpg","width":206,"height":162,"license":"Public domain","credit":"Unknown author Unknown author","page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sisinnius.jpg"},"sources":[{"label":"Wikipedia (English): Pope Sisinnius","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Sisinnius","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/"},{"label":"Wikidata item Q103277","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q103277","license":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},{"label":"Image: Sisinnius.jpg by Unknown author Unknown author (Public domain)","url":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sisinnius.jpg","license":null}],"license":{"text":"CC BY-SA 4.0","url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/","facts":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},"attribution":"Text from the Wikipedia article Pope Sisinnius, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0.
